I cannot reproduce this, and I don't see any coding cookies in the
file I downloaded.

Please provide a minimal recipe that's required to reproduce the
problem.  In particular, since you tried in "emacs -q", I don't
understand what does it mean that your default configuration is
latin-1: in "emacs -q" your default configuration is determined by
your system locale.

Thanks.
